Response to Kathryn Ryan re climate change education/action

A few years back the public in USA was making progress on accepting the reality of climate change. Then the discussion went further clarifying the deep changes required to work toward a sustainable future and the public acceptance of the reality of climate change went down (down!).

Your guest seems to have missed that. Better communications is not the answer to dealing with public acceptance of the reality of climate change, though good in its own right. Our understanding of what is the source of inaction on climate change needs to deepen before we will know what to do about it.
